Thanksgiving Through The Gospel

Contributed by T.j. Conwell on Nov 20, 2011

Thanksgiving always brings memories and allows families to come together; but do we spend our entire lives being thankful, rejoicing always, and praying without ceasing? Paul's encouragement on this is clear, and God's will for your life requires it!

On Loving God

Contributed by R. Joseph Owles on Jun 20, 2012

God will ask us if we love Him, and we answer, not with our mouths, but with our lives.

A time will come, whether we believe it or not, when we will stand before God and God will ask us just one question–only one. And he will not ask us how many times we have gone to church, or how many times we have read the Bible, or how many times we have received holy communion, how much ...read more

Christ Is King

Contributed by Jerry Flury on Oct 23, 2011

Dare To Be Different

Contributed by Robert Shaver on Jan 2, 2012

Many are drawn to a camouflage Christianity that blends in with the world but Jesus has called us to wear bright orange vests and stick out. Why? Revelation 3:14-22; John 13:35; John 15:8; Exodus 4; Mark 16:17-20

Scripture Reading: Revelation 3:14-22 Isn't that crazy? A lukewarm Christian - the idea of it is absurd. It is crazy because who starts off their Christian walk like that? Who, in giving their life to Christ says, "Lord, take half of me! For the rest of my life I will half-heartedly serve ...read more

Appearances Can Be Deceiving Series

Contributed by Thomas Clawser on Mar 25, 2017

Man looks at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart. We sometimes base our opinion of someone on the way they look. This is risky, because a person’s appearance has nothing to do with their character.
